Would agree that calling it FSDT quality is a bit of a stretch. To each his own though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Their scenery still has performance issues, especially the night textures which drop frames into the single digits on my system. Tested with QW Bae 146 with the FSX demo. Scenery complexity maxed, auto gen very dense. No AI present Fps during the day: avg of 18 Fps during night: avg of 8-9 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Frame rates even in the FS2004 demo version are terrible. My i7 oc'd to 4.0 and a GTX 260 only gets me 17fps with the old Aerosim L-1011 with everything maxed and no AI present. Very gun shy about buying this and I have both FSX and FS9 v2 KATL from them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When bean counters make the decisions...nope When a smaller outfit that is passionate about flight simming comes along, give them all the support they deserve in regards to whats financially viable Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wait...isn't/wasn't Joshua Howard a guest speaker at DEVCON in Seattle? Still trying to figure that one out...A guest speaker for a failed product Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rockliffe, Frame rate hit for me is little and much in line with the hit you would see with any PMDG add-on. At my payware KATL fps hovers around 25 on the ground in the VC. The thing is that everything is very smooth like Swofford mentioned. Once in the air in the VC, I get 30+ locked. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I bought the FS9 version last month and was incredibly impressed. Installed the FSX upgrade last night and HOLY MOLY is thing awesome! The modeling both exterior and interior is exquisite. It doesn't model the kitchen sink in its entirety systems-wise, but enough to make me pretty darned happy. And the wing views are there and very good. I'll be putting around the Southeast US in the Delta Connection scheme :) Great job QW! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

An incredible and invaluable contributor to this community. :(

+1 EXACTLY But of course Howard nor MS will ever admit that Flight was possibly a huge financial flop.

Sure do. And I sent that author an email explaining what was happening in the community and directed him to several different fs forums including this one. His reaction and I quote: "Yikes, sounds like a mess"

Tom, looking forward to your blog. Robert's post in this thread was incredibly interesting, I imagine yours will be too. -Blake

Robert, Incredible insight into something that most of us were very unaware of. I'm suprised that I'm the first to point this out. Incredible that they were so out of touch with this community, but not suprising.

^^^^ Quoted for truth. The exception being I'm not flying Flight anymore. Just waiting for the content that'll probably never come. The Alaska screens do look nice but the gameplay and quality of aircraft is a make or break for MS Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got to follow the same Avsim rules like every other sub-forum; screenshots go in the the screenshot thread unless the poster has a specific problem that can be addressed in a screenshot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Then again, there's no AI in Flight so they could probably model them easily without chucklehead jones smashing into the mountain side with his AI C172

Psolk, You'll be missed bud as I've enjoyed your posts over the years. I understand how you're feeling. Take care bud and keep the blue side up.

Absolutely

Oh really? No, I'm not the guy. I didn't curse or personally attack anyone and I was shown the door too this afternoon. Was my post harsh, a bit yes. But having ###### left in the beta forum does them no good whatsoever. Should I cross-reference my cheerleader posting in the other thread?

Well you know what? I too lost my posting priviledges over there this afternoon and I didn't even come CLOSE to what "Emmeth" was posting, nor did I curse. My criticism of them was harsh regarding the lack of communication. If they want a cheerleading squad, that's their perogative.

The decisions MS are making with this title are absolutely mind-boggling. I don't think I've EVER seen a game company go in the complete opposite direction from the wants of their existant fan base let alone ignore and dismiss them entirely.

Very wise words and good post NAF

Wait...What????Stephen gave him a 10-day suspension, but now he's outright banned and all his posts removed to show any sort of evidence he was even in this conversation? Man, there needs to be some consistency. :unsure:And now I've noticed my first post in this thread has been deleted. What on earth is going on Moderators?

The thing is, I find myself unwilling to post anything in regards to Flight other than I don't like it. I was a beta tester, I beta tested it, I gave some feedback, I don't/didn't find it my type of game-experience, therefore I haven't played it or bought any DLC for it. I'm in the camp that think's BeachAV8R's (Chris Frimuth) review at simhq was absolutely spot on in his findings/opinion.Yeah, I'm gunshy about posting here and I'm willing to bet many Avsim members are too.I do want to say thanks to Tom for posting it, and Josh Howards's answers (or lack thereof) confirm many of my sentiments regarding Flight.

And for an additional 400 MS pts. "Bug Splat 2.0"
